About this deal

Featuring one dedicated 8K input and one output for 8K quality video from 8K source devices; 8K upscaling available on all six HDMI ports. Enjoy the most musical performance from a compact, slim chassis. At half the height of a traditional AV receiver, the NR1711 delivers the musical sound that is synonymous with Marantz. Dynamic Volume: Audyssey Dynamic Volume features advanced psycho-acoustic processing to deliver clear dialog and wide range sound at reduced volume levels so that you can enjoy theater-level clarity at whatever listening level you choose. Additionally, the receiver comes equipped with Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports and a USB port, enabling both wired and wireless connectivity options. This allows for seamless streaming of content from online sources or connected devices. With a slim profile that is half the height of a traditional AV receiver, the new Marantz NR1711 delivers exceptional performance and sound quality.

The Marantz NR1711 is a home cinema set that offers a range of audio and video capabilities. With a power output of 50W per channel, it delivers a balanced and immersive sound experience. The set features 7.1 audio channels, allowing for a multidimensional audio setup that enhances the viewing experience. While both receivers deliver excellent sound quality, the Cinema 70s is better for those who want a more immersive sound experience. The extra amplification channels and the higher wattage make a noticeable difference in overall sound quality. Both modes extrapolate height information to create an enveloping virtual effect. It works well if your physical layout is standard 5.1. The main theme for Okja (Netflix, Dolby Atmos), which plays over the end credits, becomes forest dense and lush. These modes shouldn't be confused with the Virtual Movie setting accessed via the remote, which is unrelated legacy processing that should be consigned to history.

LipSync: This function adjusts the delay between audio and video output. You can do this manually or have the receiver set the LipSync function automatically. When connected to a TV via HDMI the receiver automatically adjusts audio output timing, if the TV supports an automatic LipSync function. You can also manually delay the sound output up to 500ms to synchronize it with the video image. Four Smart Select function buttons on the included remote allow you to store your preferred or frequently used settings and change them when you want — including input source, volume level, sound mode, Audyssey configuration and even “All Zone Stereo” setting for party mode. With the push of a button, the NR1711 instantly configures the receiver to your desired setting. Easily connect your analog turntable to the receiver and enjoy the pure intent of each recording within your vinyl collection. DTS Neural:X: Both models feature DTS Neural:X which is an advanced upmixer that can take non DTS:X content and upmix it to the DTS:X speaker layout. It has replaced the DTS Neo family with improved flexibility.

Dynamic HDR: Dynamic HDR enables a noticeable progression in overall video image quality from SDR to static HDR, and now static HDR to dynamic HDR. Dynamic HDR support ensures every moment of a video is displayed at its ideal values for depth, detail, brightness, contrast, and wider color gamuts - on a scene-by-scene or even a frame-by-frame basis. HDR-enhanced content is available for movies, videos, TV shows, video and PC games and VR. For the DACs Marantz has used 32-bit AKM AK4458 D/A converters on all channels for optimum fidelity and the widest dynamic range with the lowest distortion. This ensures consistent high-fidelity and precise channel matching across all channels for the best listening experience possible. HDR-compatible for extended picture contrast and brightness with compatible TVs and HDR-encoded content Built-in Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi with 2.4GHz/5GHz dual band support: Solid wireless network connectivity even in congested environments.

The Marantz Cinema 70s and NR1711 support 8K video resolution, HDR10, and Dolby Vision. While both the Cinema 70s and NR1711 feature six HDMI ports, five HDMI ports on the Cinema 70s only feature HDMI 2.0b support, while all six HDMI connections on the Cinema 70s feature HDMI 2.1 support. This means we could only plug in one 4K at 120 Hz device, such as the PlayStation 5, into the NR1711, while we could run multiple 4K 120 Hz devices through the Cinema 70s. Marantz Slimline Cinema 70s and Marantz Slimline NR1711 support DTS:X. A technique used in DTS:X is similar to the one used in Dolby Atmos. Instead of a fixed number of channels, DTS:X defines object locations from the listener in polar coordinates. An a/v receiver then dynamically renders sound according to the current speaker configuration. The speaker layout employed by DTS:X is the sum of Dolby Atmos and Auro-3D. It has standard 7.1 channel base layer, a 5 channel height layer above the base layer on the front and side walls, and 3 rows of speakers on the ceiling. Since the NR series is mostly destined to be used in more confined spaces and small rooms our testing is a bit different compared to a fully sized AV receiver that offers much more power in comparison. Firstly we test a movie using a standard 5.1.2 Atmos setup with two height speakers connected in the middle of our listening area and then we retest the movie by using a simpler 5.1 channels system and using the included Virtualizer to determine if we can get a similar performance but without the need to add dedicated height speakers. built-in Bluetooth for wireless music listening with smartphones, tablets, and compatible computers You can also choose various inputs in the HEOS app. And if you have other HEOS devices, you can select from their inputs to play on this receiver and vice versa. HEOS is one of the few multiroom systems which permits this flexibility.

HEOS® Built-in wireless multi-room music streaming technology: Listen from any room for a connected, whole-home audio experience. Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) HDMI support:The eARC HDMI output transmits uncompressed and object-based audio formats like Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® directly from a smart TV app to the AV receiver.Four Smart Select function buttons on the included remote allow you to store your preferred or frequently used settings and change them when you want - including input source, volume level, sound mode, Audyssey configuration and even “All Zone Stereo” setting for party mode. With the push of a button, the NR1711 instantly configures the receiver to your desired setting.

Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization: Both models support Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization which is a digital signal processing solution that leverages Dolby's deep understanding of human audio perception to create the sensation of overhead sound from the listener-level speakers. Feel every dimension in Dolby Atmos. Enjoy a 5.1 surround speaker system and two additional overhead speakers or two Dolby Atmos elevation speakers, delivering dramatic overhead effects for truly enveloping audio including Dolby Surround upmixer for legacy content. Center Spread & Dialog Control: Center Spread expands the center channel signal to left and right front speakers to create a wider frontal audio image for the listener, when in Dolby Surround mode. Dialog Control adjusts the volume of dialog in movies and vocals in music so they can be heard more easily, when in DTS:X mode.The spec of Marantz’s NR range may have evolved over years, but the design has largely remained static. The amp has a familiar curved fascia, with two dials either side of a large and clear display. DTS Virtual:X provides immersive audio without height channels, creating virtual height effects in a 2.1, 5.1 or 7.1 speaker arrangement. There are several options for connecting the Wi-Fi. These worked smoothly, and we later found that the bandwidth was quite sufficient to flawlessly stream DSD128 music, the highest quality that this receiver can support. But size is not the only part of the receiver that has remained the same as the general look and buttons layout is completely similar to last year’s NR1710. And here is another area where the NR series excels. They offer a fully functional front layout as any full sized receiver does but at a smaller size. As such we get the usual two big knobs configuration with the left one used for input selection and the right one for volume control while a fully functional display sits between them. With the receiver supporting both wired as well as wireless connections (2.4GHz and 5GHz) you can choose what is best for your given situation. But streaming capabilities don’t stop there as with Airplay 2 you can stream music from Apple devices through the use of Bluetooth if you are an Apple lover. And since we mentioned Bluetooth we should note that the NR1711 can also stream audio to Bluetooth enabled headphones.
